FOOD SEX MONEY

FOOD SEX MONEY AKA SEX MONEY FOOD

Shu Lea Cheang sums up a lifetime of art work in three words: FOOD SEX MONEY - in any order. From garlic as credito to post-net non-cash flow; from fish sexing upstream to being smeared in viral fluid; from drive by dining to location ID: HOME; Cheang comes out to unashamedly acknowledge the three major strands of her work. From homesteading the cyberspace in the 90s to her current retreat in the BioNet; from coin locker babies to seeds underground; from eco-cybernoia to liquidised futures, Cheang signs off on the tech race. Call her 'badass' 'cyberpunk cultist'; shut her down for 'sexual stimulation'; walk out on her for being 'sexually explicit', but do dine with her to watch the money grow and the seeds sprout.
